Wire harness-side shield connector

Abstract

A wire harness-side shield connector includes an outer case fittingly connected to a unit-side connector and having a shielding function, and a housing receiving connection terminals fixed respectively to end portions of a plurality of shielded wires, wherein the outer case includes a shield shell which receives the housing and has a shielding function, and a shell holder which when fixed to the shield shell by threading a screw member, causes braids of the shielded wires folded back outwardly to be conductively connected to the shield shell.

1. A wire harness-side shield connector, comprising:
 an outer case, fittingly connected to a unit-side connector and having a shielding function; and 
 a housing, receiving connection terminals fixed respectively to end portions of a plurality of shielded wires; 
 wherein said outer case comprises:
 a shield shell which receives said housing and has a shielding function; and 
 a shell holder which when fixed to said shield shell by threading a screw member, causes braids of said shielded wires folded back outwardly, to be conductively connected to said shield shell, 
 wherein a shield ring is mounted on said shield shell of said wire harness-side shield connector when connecting a collective shield braid to said shield shell; and 
 said collective shield braid is fitted on said shield shell, and then said shield ring is fitted on said collective shield ring, thereby press-fastening said collective shield ring to said shield shell. 
 
 
   
   
     2. The wire harness-side shield connector according to  claim 1 , wherein shield terminals are fixed respectively to outer peripheries of said folded-back braids of said shielded wires in such a manner that said shield terminals are conductively connected respectively to said braids; and
 when said shell holder is fixed to said shield shell by threading said screw member, said braids of said shielded wires are grounded with said shield shell via the respective shield terminals. 
 
   
   
     3. The wire harness-side shield connector according to  claim 1 , wherein a waterproof packing is fitted on an outer periphery of said housing, and is interposed between said housing and said shield shell, and a waterproof plug is fitted on an outer periphery of that portion of each shielded wire disposed between said connection terminal and said shield terminal, and is interposed between said shielded wire and said housing.
